Knitting: Beret, Tam
This pattern is knit from the top down, using paired increases and decreases to shape the stitches and create the design. In a self-striping yarn, the six increase sections look like the petals of a flower.

In yoga, a drishdi is a point of focus that helps you keep your balance when pushing your boundaries with a new pose. It’s a place of rest, of stillness amidst the chaos. It is the place where challenging becomes natural, where straining gives way to inner calm, the place where you find your center.
